Introducing Jaya
JAYA TO RELEASE DEBUT SINGLE DJ DO IT AGAIN ON FEBRUARY 22nd
FIRST BRITISH-INDIAN FEMALE TO BE SIGNED TO A MAJOR LABEL DEBUTS FIRST CLUB SMASH OF 2010, WITH SUPPORT FROM URBAN SUPERSTARS N-DUBZ
It’s a milestone that's been a long time coming - but it's easy to see why Jaya is blazing the trail for British-Indian artists, with radio already in rapture about her debut single release DJ Do It Again, via All Around The World / Universal Music.
DJ Do It Again is a commercial pop record of immense proportions; perfectly capturing the excitement of hearing a favourite song on the radio, it’s an irresistible synth groove with dancefloor-friendly beats and a monster chorus. Jaya says: "It's about those moments when it doesn't matter how tired you are, how much your feet hurt - you just want to get up and dance and have a good time."
Articulate, determined and charming - with songs that combine R&B and electropop, Jaya is a hugely appealing pop package. "Confident, creative, sexy and larger-than-life" is how she describes herself - and she's not wrong. It's why she's attracted so many big names to work on her debut album, set for release in late 2010: she will collaborate with producers such as Hawkeye (Raghav, Kardinal Offishall) Jonas Jeberg (Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears) and Parker & James (Chipmunk ‘Oopsy Daisy’). "It's going to be a feel good album," she says. "Every track will be different, but I want people to be able to listen to it as a whole too."
